I am trying to crop in Preview but Crop is greyed out. I tried Edit, Select all, but crop is still greyed out. I was able to use this function prior to upgrading to Ventura.

How can I crop in Preview. Crop is greyed out. Prior to upgrading to Ventura, Crop was an icon on Markup Tool Bar.

Use a Selection Tool first, see if this helps:

Thanks for your reply. However, the only selection option is "Select all". This highlights the whole page and the Crop function is still greyed out.

I just worked out that I have to go under Tools, Rectangular Selection to choose Crop; then Crop becomes available. It also comes up on the Toolbar when I have used Rectangular Selection.

Prior to Ventura, the Crop function was always visible on the Toolbar - I used this function on an almost daily basis.
